Wil Shipley on I Invite You To WINE
Posted by Stowe Boyd
Wil Shipley wrote an interesting post that invites other programmers to join him in getting WINE (an open source implementation of the Windows API) to run on Mac OS X. He predicts that with the coming combination of Intel-based Macs and a working WINE implementation, people that stick with Windows because of specific Windows apps -- especially games -- will be able to switch:
[from Call Me Fishmeal.: I invite you to wine.]
When Wine for OS X comes out, it is going to be the end for Microsoft. The actual end. Because nobody is going to want to pay for Microsoft's increasingly draconian licensing for Windows even as Window gets crappier and crappier. What's the average time from plugging in a Windows machine to it getting its first virus? 7 minutes? Windows has kinds of viruses Mac users have never even dreamed of.
His post reads like a recruiting poster: "Get on this project now. Get it headed in the right direction (dump X11, run under Finder/CoreGraphis). Get the glory. Get the job. Get the girl."
But I have to admit, after trying to run Virtual PC on my Mac for the last few months JUST to run Quicken Professional I would certainly welcome running it as a WINE app instead. And it would be the final answer to all those people -- like Russell Beattie, who just switched back to Windows -- who argue that the hot apps are released on Windows first. I am going to keep my eyes on this one.

What is the most important information I should know about Clonazepam?
Use caution when driving, operating machinery, or performing other hazardous activities. Clonazepam will cause drowsiness and may cause dizziness. If you experience drowsiness or dizziness, avoid these activities.
Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking Clonazepam. Alcohol may also increase your risk of having a seizure.
Do not stop taking Clonazepam suddenly. This could cause seizures and withdrawal symptoms. Talk to your doctor if you need to stop treatment with Clonazepam.
